Storm Front (Live At Yankee Stadium, Bronx, Ny - June 1990)

Safe at harbor
Everything is easy
Off to starboard
Daylight comes up fast

I am restless
For the open water
Red flags are flying
From the Coast Guard mast

They told me to stay
I heard all the information
I motored away
And steered straight ahead, though the weatherman said

There's a storm front coming (mood indigo)
White water running (and the pressure is low)
Storm front coming (mood indigo)
Small craft warning on the radio

I've been sailing
Long time on this ocean
Man gets lonesome
All those years at sea

I've got a woman (ha!)
My life should be easy
Most men hunger
For the life I live

The morning was gray
But I had the motivation
I motored away
And ran into more heavy weather offshore

There's a storm front coming (mood indigo)
White water running (and the pressure is low)
Storm front coming (mood indigo)
Small craft warning on the radio

We've got a low pressure system and a northeast breeze
We've got a falling barometer and rising seas
We've got the cumulonimbus and a possible gale
We've got a force nine blowing on the Beaufort scale

I'm still restless
For the big blue water
Though she gives me
Just about everything I need

She asked me to stay
But I'd done my navigation
I drove her away
But I should have known to stay tied up at home

There's a storm front coming (mood indigo)
White water running (and the pressure is low)
Storm front coming (mood indigo)
Small craft warning on the radio

Storm front coming (come on)
Yeah, there's a storm front coming (mood indigo)
(White water running)
You know, we got the white water running
(Storm front coming)
Ah, a storm front a comin' (mood indigo)
(White water running)
Sure you gotta white water running yeah-yeah-yeah

Oh, storm front coming
(White water running)
Yeah, we got the white water running, yeah-yeah-yeah
(Storm front coming) ah, white too!
(White water running) Yeah, baby, baby, baby-yeah (oh-oh-oh)
C'mon storm front comin' (white water running)
Sure we gotta white water running, yeah (oh-oh-oh)
(Storm front coming)
(White water running)
Running, running yeah
